If all of SJMs other books didn’t exist and ACOTAR didn’t exist, ACOMAF would be 5 stars for me. But between some obvious issues I have with SJMs writing, and the lack of transition in a lot of things between ACOTAR and ACOMAF, it’s more realistically a 4 star book. But in my heart, and on its own, it is 5.

Very detailed review and discussion to come on my channel next week!

Edit: on re-read in 2017, I bumped it up to 5 stars. It's always been 5 stars in my heart.
